The new Holiday July – December mini catalogs are arriving to mailboxes all over the states and I hope yours has arrived, too!
If it hasn’t arrived by Monday let me know. If you are new to Stampin’ Up (or coming back) and need a catalog, email me with your address and I’ll send you one!
Also included with the mini catalog is a Sale a Bration catalog, freebies in July/August! The NEW Stampin’ Up July- Dec Mini Catalog will begin on July 1st!
(which used to be known as the Holiday catalog, now it’s July-Dec Mini)
There are some really nice non-holiday items in there, also!
I’m offering my paper, ribbon and accessories product shares again!
A ‘share’ is sharing all the products with others that order also. For example, I will cut all the new designer papers into 6×6 pieces and I split it with 8 people. So you end up with a sample of every paper ( 100 sheets) in the new catalog to play with or use as samples!
Anyone can join in the fun, customers and demonstrators welcome (demos on my team get a team discount)
You can order just the paper shares, ribbon shares or accessories alone or a bundle all 3!
Free shipping on all my shares as a thank you from me to you!
(please don’t hit reply to my blog post, I may not get it, it goes somewhere in blogspace and seems to take forever to get to me) I’ll always respond back to you the same day on email with confirmation if received.

Hi all!
Before I go into my project for this week, here are the RETIRING LISTS for the January-June 30th Mini Catalog
There is a sale starting on Wednesday, June 1st with many items 50% off!
Click HERE to view the list by PDF PAGE NUMBER Click HERE to open the list to a sortable EXCEL sheet (A special thanks to demo friend Deb Snyder who revised the list to larger print for us:)
(Everything is While Supplies Last)
On to this week’s project video!
It’s easily missed in our new Stampin’ Up catalog but it’s a staple every stamper should have! It’s called Masking Paper and it’s a very lightweight, sticky paper to mask or cover up images. It’s mostly used when we want to put flowers in a pot, for example, or omit part of a stamped image. We have used post it notes or painter’s tape in the past but these sheets are much bigger – each sheet is 5×7 inches!
Watch my video to see how masking paper can help stack tea cups!
This week I was inspired by the Pretty Pumpkins bundle from the Stampin’ Up Holiday catalog (July-December 2021 catalog)
If you don’t have a fall pumpkin set yet, this is a nice one. If you have one similar from previous catalogs, get it out and try embossing in white! It’s so pretty and you can use lots of colors as the base.
In this week’s video, I compare a few ways to get a nice, crisp white embossed image and also how to fix spot if you miss a part of a stamped image!
The BE DAZZLING 6×6 Paper is gone but I do have a few extra! If you have a $50 order to place before 9/30, email me or place your order online and I will mail you one!
If it says Whimsy or Whimsical in the title, I’m probably gonna buy it.
I don’t know why I’ve always had a thing for quirky, non traditional decor and stamps.
This cute bundle isn’t too far out of the box but I do like the little skinny trees and all fun font.
I seem to get a request each year from someone who wants FLAT but CUTE holiday cards to send!
I think this one works well to mail and is pretty easy to do. You could sub stamping on white for the greeting instead of embossing but you know what I say, if you emboss it means you love them a little bit more:)
Here is my video showing the whole suite and the project:
My paper, ribbons and accessories all arrived late Friday so I’m cutting and prepping for the Shares!
So I’m off to the workroom and hope y’all have a fun weekend!
Before my post, just a reminder to sign up for my paper, ribbon and accessories shares for the new catalog that begins Aug 3rd!
If you missed that post, here is the link to read all about it! (it will open in a new tab)
It was SO hot here in the mountains this week so I cooled off with some winter cards. With the upcoming release of the new Holiday catalog August 3rd, I’ve been starting to feel a little bit nostalgic for snowy pine cones and egg nog. I’m always ready for eggnog, even in August:) This week I used a new bundle called Christmas to Remember. It’s on page 19 of the upcoming Holiday mini catalog.
Here is the video below and below the video is the link to my Recipe PDF if you’d like to print it
This one might be my favorite! Coloring just the white cardstock with my Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers.
I layered onto Pool Party Cardstock and that went on a thick white card. You can use a sponge dauber and ink pad, watch my tip for how to spread the ink evenly.I love a striped ribbon and there’s a new one in pool party in the new mini catalog.
A little rustic with the Espresso/soft suede pine cones and dark spruce pine needles but adding some of the brushed gold in the label makes it feel a little more festive.
One of my favorite color combos for the winter is Bermuda Bay, White & Silver.
It just feels crisp and cool.
I will update the shopping links on Aug 3rd when this new bundle goes live for ordering!
For now, here are some of the Stampin’ Up products used for my 3 cards:

If you are new to product shares, here is how they work:
A product share basically means you will get a sample of the new designer papers, ribbons and accessories by sharing it with others. For example, I’ll cut the paper into 6×6 pieces to share it with 8 people, so you get one 6×6 sheet of each paper rather than having to buy a whole pack. . The ribbons I divide between 5 people and accessories are divided also.
I’ll order first thing on August 3rd when the catalog begins. It takes approx 2-3 weeks after I order to receive your shares in the mail.
I’ve done shares for over 12 years and always fill orders very fast! It’s really a fun way to try out new products and enjoy creating!
This week I had a request from Barbara who said
“how can I made the cute shaker card on page 4 of the new Sale a Bration catalog?
I don’t have a die cutting machine”
In the Stampin’ Up Holiday catalog, there are new shaker domes called Cloche Shaker Domes. There are also a few new stamp sets that coordinate with them, one for sweets and the other a winter set.
(Both the Holiday catalog and Sale-a-Bration start August 3rd!)
So the challenge for many who are just stepping in to stamping and do not have a die cutting machine yet, how to use the domes without the dies? Or maybe you don’t want the whole bundle but love the Dome shakers.
Here is a work around….the dies are much easier and perfectly cut out BUT in a pinch, it can work!
The Penguin Playmates designer paper will be free with a $50 order beginning Aug 3rd! It’s really cute and some of the images coordinate with the Penguin builder punch. Easy to fussy cut the rest like I did on the inside of the card here.
I’ll be back on Monday with my Holiday Product Shares I’ll be offering! Til Then, Go Stamp Something!
Some love ’em, some don’t!
These squirrels are pretty cute and won’t eat all the bird seed:)
This is a new stamp set called Nuts About Squirrels on page 49 of the upcoming Holiday catalog.
I just received my preorder for some of the goodies and this one spoke to me first!
It’s a 2-Step stamp set that is pretty easy to stamp a cute card quickly.
I just love the Blending Brushes – so much smoother than the larger sponges but a sponge dauber could work also.
I kept the inside simple with the same sponging and another squirrel of course!
Yes! I will be offering Holiday Catalog Shares! I’ll be posting those right here on my blog the week of July 19th for reservations and July 27th for invoicing for payments So many great papers and accessories this year!
Quick Shop List
(Nuts About Squirrels Avail Aug 3rd_
This week I played around with an interactive die called Give it a Whirl!
It’s quite easy to use but of course I had to make it harder by going in landscape position but I really like how it came out.
In my video I show some ways to make it spin better and also a bonus card as a gift card holder…
I was wrong in my video, the dies are not paired with or bundled with the Stellar Birthday – they are just shown in use on that page.
I think the dies are perfect on their own of course for a variety of cards!
